About

The Thirsty Peacock serves South Island diners from 312 Montreal Street in Christchurch Central City, Christchurch 8013. A 4.3 out of 5 average from 551 reviews gives a clear picture of how the venue is regarded, and the volume of feedback points to a busy, well-established operation.

Its central Christchurch position makes it easy to reach from the city and from other centres on the island, including Queenstown, Dunedin, Nelson, Blenheim, Wanaka, Te Anau and Kaikoura. The Thirsty Peacock is a restaurant, and it opens from 10:00 until 24:00 or later on We-Sa, with Tu and Su running 10:00 to 17:00.

The venue's website, thirstypeacock.co.nz, carries its own information for anyone planning a visit.

New Zealand has a temperate maritime climate, so summers are mild and winters rarely bring snow at low altitude, and the seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February. English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names are used throughout the country.
